This was a mega hit with my family. Was every bit as good (some felt better) than our that of our initial exposure to the dish at a restaurant in SF. My father liked it so much he was putting it the rice. I liked it so much I was even dipping sourdough into it when we ran out of lavash :)I did use Kashk I ordered online and must admit I was nervous when I saw "keep refrigerated" on the jars :( However it was shipped from LA and made it here the next day. Not sure that is such a good idea though. Might ask them to send it in a foamed box with ice bags.Thanks for the recipe though... excellent and relatively easy to do. Great recipe.

Hmm don't know about the Indian version but you can maybe try either a fresh chili or use powdered chili purchased from an Indian store which is different than the ones at regular stores.

Unfortunately I didn't have any kashk so I used sour cream. I can only imagine how much tastier it is with authentic ingredients. Do you know what I would have to add to give it the spicy kick like the version that is found in Indian restaurants? Again, thank you for sharing your recipes!
